Reviews from Parents and Professionals
“We recommend this app for individuals who want a more dynamic way to teach early literacy skills. The app offers many ways to customise the program to accommodate the learner where they are and offers a pathway to expand their skill set”
Bridging Apps, 5 star review
“The app allowed us to see the hidden potential in some of our children that I feel we would not have been able to see otherwise. The app proved vital for any EAL children and encouraged speech and more initiated conversation.”
Jess Hindhaugh, Special Educational Needs Teacher
